Poem # 29 I Am Not Who I Was

I wish I could show you the amazing me right now

I wish I could prove to you the way I am now

and reveal who I have become so recently

I was thinking of how to bring it to you

out of the blue, or through the news

but still I know the only way is through what I do

so I'll show you what I've done and what I'll do

to prove to you that this me is not the same

but the changed and repentant me

I'll break through that fine line of love and hate

regain your trust in time

I'll burn the pages of history of my past

I hope you can help me to bring out

the new life that I have become

I love you so much, and I wish you'd love me back

but every time you see me, you see the wrong me

you see the me that died long ago

I keep trying to tell you that what you see is a lie

that what you have known is not here anymore

that I have finally become the man that you love

but my words only reach the surface of your sympathy

only enough to scratch the edge of your conscience

and frighten you ever more

but still ever more, I will have you hear me out

I will follow you to the ends of the world

fall whenever you fall and hurt as you do

to feel as you do and to understand what has become

of the heart that once held mine so dear

the heart that once loved and was loved
